This is just CRAZY!!!

Now THAT'S a big baby!
Has everyone seen this story? Crazy!

An Indonesia woman named Ani gave birth to 19.2-lb baby yesterday in Medan, North Sumatra. The boy, Muhammad Akbar Risuddin, is among the heaviest babies ever delivered who survived. Perhaps unsurprisingly, he was delivered by Caesarean section.

A gynecologist who took part in the operation said the "special delivery" was no easy feat.
"This heavy baby made the surgery really tough, especially the process of taking him out of his (mother's) womb. His legs were so big," Binsar Sitanggang said.

The boy is said to be healthy despite having to initially be given oxygen to overcome breathing problems.

Sitanggang described the baby as "extraordinary" in almost every way.

"He's got a strong appetite, every minute, it's almost nonstop feeding," he said. "This baby boy is extraordinary, the way he's crying is not like a usual baby. It's really loud.

Miniature Golf

I have to say I was really excited to have a 3 day weekend with the family doing family things and hanging out. Last weekend was busy with a baby shower I attended and a bridal shower I hosted. We just needed a break to do some fun things. HOWEVER, Friday started and most of us had the stomach flu. It hit us fast and only lasted 24hrs. I still was sad that we couldn't have the weekend we hoped for. Finally on Sunday we started feeling better, so we went out for some put put golf! It was pretty funny watching Micah hit the turf. He obviously had no clue how to play, but loved hitting his ball the best he could and then running after it. Ellie did pretty good, but seemed to get bored after a while. Benjamin just got better with each hole. It was a fun family event despite the soggy ground and gloomy weather. We had lunch at Longhorn and headed home for some naps. At 5pm we went to the Family Arena for Disney on Ice. I took the 3 kids. It was awesome! The kids loved it! The show feature most of the popular Disney characters like Buzz and Woody, Aladdin, the Disney Princesses, Pinocchio, the Incredibles, and of course Mickey and Minnie Mouse. When we had to leave Micah threw a fit (a bad one) and in the car was crying, "go back, go back". I have never heard him say that before. Guess he really liked it. I think we will make this an annual event!
On Monday, we went to the zoo with the Hardees and had fun seeing very active animals including the large female lion perched up in a tree! I forgot my camera, so I don't have any good pictures from the zoo, but it was a gorgeous day and fun to get out!
